Good Friday - Our Broken Hallelujah

On the night our Lord was betrayed

Betrayed by us, you and meFor all the hurt we feel and pin on Him.Betrayed.For letting us downFor not saving us in our timeFor not being who we thought He was supposed to be. On the night our Lord was betrayedFor lust, for money, for fearFor harbored bitterness and angerBetrayed.For not healing all the woundsAnd curing all the sicknessesThe way we thought they should be healed

On the night we shoved all of our anger, our disappointment, our failureAcross his bodyAnd our hearts were hardened to his love

Betrayed.For being the Healer, the Redeemer

The son of the Most High The Savior we never know how much we need

On the night sin thought it won

As it mocked the cross

And heaven weeped Betrayed.For being willing to die to save us For having a heart that loved the unlovableFor humbling himself from the throne of heaven -
